On short wave-long wave interactions in the relativistic context

Analysis of PDEs 2022-01-25 v5

Abstract

In this paper we introduce models of short wave-long wave interactions in the relativistic setting. In this context the nonlinear Schr\"odinger equation is no longer adequate for describing short waves and is replaced by a nonlinear Dirac equation. Two specific examples are considered: the case where the long waves are governed by a scalar conservation law; and the case where the long waves are governed by the augmented Born-Infeld equations in electromagnetism.
